Slide 1 narration<br />N: (with enthusiasm) When you have collaborated with other teacher professionals, have you wanted for all members to see a document and edit the same document and have all members be able to view it? There is nice tool that is called Google Docs that allows collaboration between professionals and also allows all users to edit the document.

Slide 2 Narration<br />N: (seriously) How many times have you been disrupted at home regarding your work at your school? Now I know many of us do not care to talk “business” after hours, but sometimes there are times that I just want some time for myself away from school. Google Docs allows you those times. Google docs allows you to create a document that all participants can change, alter, delete, edit, ect. It also allows you to use Goggle spreadsheets and other software while you are using Google docs. No more having to write something out on a piece of paper and wait for a reply. With Google Docs you create an account, create a document, and send an invite to the other participants. Once those participants have logged in, they can now change and edit the document that you created. You can even do it simultaneously!<br />Text: Does this look like your group when it collaborates?

Slide 6 NarrationN: (normal voice) Google documents offers many benefits. To begin, Google documents is a free program to use. All the user needs to sign up is a gmail account, which is quick, easy, and also free. One major benefit is that the user is able to access their documents from any computer with an internet connection. This eliminates the need to carry a laptop, flash drive or external hard drive. The program does not require software downloads or installations. The program also allows the user to save their documents in a secure online storage facility and doesn’t bog down the computer’s storage space. This also means that if your computer were to crash, your documents wouldn’t be lost! The storage space allotted to each user is equal to about 100 pages. Google Docs enables multiple people in different locations to collaborate simultaneously on the same doc from any computer with internet access. Often, people email their documents for others to review, wait for them to reply and then make the necessary changes. Simultaneous collaboration cuts down the wait and work time. There is no longer a need to go back and forth, comparing and consolidating information. Google Documents is also user-friendly. It has similar capabilities offered by popular word processing programs like Microsoft Word. Most users don’t have to spend a ton of extra time learning about the program before creating a Google doc. The next slides will demonstrate some of the similarities between Google Documents and Microsoft Word. The purpose is to show that if one knows how to create a document in Word, they will have no problem creating a similar document in Google Docs. <br />Text: Why use Google Documents?- Heading Bulleted list of reasons followingGraphics: screenshot of Google Documents logoAnimation: noneInteraction/Activities: click mouse to advance to next screen<br />

Slide 14 Narration<br />N1: (with interest)One of the most unique features of Google Presenter is that you can embed it into a blog or a website. This is a screencast of me embedding a sample presentation made in Google Presenter into a Blog. <br />After you have created you presentation, go the top right corner of your screen where it says share. Click on the drop down arrow and at the bottom you will see Publish/embed. Click on this. Now I want to check the box that says start slideshow as soon as the player loads. I also want to check the box that restarts the slideshow after it ends. I also have the option to change the timing for advancing the slides. I will change it to 5 seconds so that the viewers will have plenty of time to reach slide. In the box you see the HTML code. You just need to highlight this code and click copy. Now you want to open your blog and click on new post. First I will add my title. Now I click on edit html and I paste my code in there. Now all I have to do is click on publish my post and then I will view my blog. As you can see the presentation made in Google Presenter is embedded into my blog. I even added a video into my presentation and this will also play in my blog. <br />This feature for embedding Google Presentation in a blog or a website is a really useful tool. It allows for a large audience to view the project that you made.<br />Text: Click here for a screencast demonstrating how to embed a Google Presentation into a blog post<br />Graphics: This slide will have a video of my screen as I use Google Presenter<br />Animation: Video<br />Sound: Voice Recording<br />Interaction/Activities: Use clicks mouse on text to play the video.
